In Reply to: Worst tuba ever made? posted by Leland on October 12, 2000 at 00:02:59:
That tuba of Henry's was really bad, (not to knock Mirafones, it's just that this particular one was dreadful). Reading this post jarred my memory and enabled me to recall a tuba my high school owned. This was something called a 20th Century; a BBb tuba which was literally unplayable due to its awful intonation. Anyone else heard of them? Another bad one which I still own is, (hold on to your hats) a York BBb, detachable bell 3-valve. It's loud, but it's bad! I guess every company made a dog or two.
